OUT-OF-THE-BOX OSCARS

This year’s Oscars set quite a few noteworthy milestones, with Moonlight becoming the fi rst LGBTQ-themed fi lm to win Best Picture, and Mahershala Ali bagging the fi rst acting award for a Muslim actor. Shravani Marwadi from Fergusson College shared, “We can fi nally say that the art of cinema has been successful in creating an industry without discriminations, where creativity remains the only ground for selection. The Academy Awards set a new precedent for ‘art without boundaries’ and, in the current socio-political situation, it’s a great victory indeed.” Kshitij Vichare, a budding fi lmmaker from the same college, added, “It was necessary to give out a message that the medium of cinema is beyond just entertainment and throws light on the diff erent identities of people.”
